[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
i try this games with other custom kernels, even in an other device what is not a phone. if i used custom overclock kernels, most of this games dont work. so its not related to this kernel but every custom kernel. if im completely disable the overclock feature this problematic games will work.

but without the overclock many tweaks its impossible, so the kernel is very close to the stock in that case. so if you want to play this games you cant do anything else , just use the stock kernel. for now..
[LG Optimus 2x] CVonV:
haha wow that's a shame :( okay well thanks for the reply.. hopefully one of you geniuses will get it to work one day :)
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
well, some hd games like osmos, modern combat 3, dead space working flawless.

obviously this problematic games not needed so much power like the hd games, but not work. its 100% certain that have some kind of bug in this games. very hard to find the problem if the application have a bug too.

maybe the app developers correct the problems. at least for example the plants vs zombies games not working with many other users too, the market topic full of the comments like "not work", "crash", etc... so that game have a bug for sure.if the developers see this, probably try to fix the problem, or not :)
[LG Optimus 2x] CVonV:
yeah.. before the recent update to Draw Something.. it would ALWAYS freeze on custom kernel.. but now.. it would still freeze very often.. but at least on the rare occasion you can play it for like 1 round.. lol
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
what is the point about this game? i dont get it :)
[LG Optimus 2x] CVonV:
it's just like pictionary but between only 2 people.. it's really really fun and addictive
[LG Optimus 2x] braddocksp:
Is posible change drivers or modules of bluetooth? Using same v20q? Or I stay in stock for the rest... ??? :P NOOO PLEASE!
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
im using the stock bt driver already
[LG Optimus 2x] braddocksp:
Another posibility is test miuiu and cm7 official night with stock kernel and etana.

In these cases is when I love the nandroids, at least I can check relatively quickly.

Thanks, when I try, I will post results.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
progress about the OTF:

- backlight driver manage via the OTF, stock and fajarep like values (completed)

- ds and stock battery driver manage via the OTF (still need to work on it, maybe Spica can help)

- in OTF, CPU second core stuck at active state after a while, known bug, trying to eliminate.
[LG Optimus 2x] yukkio:
What mean?

BR.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
mean: using a stock voltages for the backlight levels or using lowered voltages what is more powersave. im using that lowered levels currently in my kernel however in some conditions this may be causing screen tearing. the stock voltages not but eating a bit more battery. now it can be changed via the otf. default using the powersave levels.
[LG Optimus 2x] Pascalone19:
Today, after flashing the latest kernel released 03/11/2012 and today received a message after the device has begun to ring endlessly and I had to disconnect and reconnect the battery, I state that I changed on any value with OTF, I have the kernel as issued by Vadonka!
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
let me know if happen again
[LG Optimus 2x] babaandnana:
Hi vadonka,

I flashed temasek's 73 and the latest LOC non DS kernel and for some reason, my baseband changed from froyo 725 to the screenshot below. I did not flash a new baseband, just kang 73 and the kernel. Any ideas for this?
[LG Optimus 2x] hadi_rena:
Hmmm thanks for the answer... maybe I'll buy a new headphone to test it :p
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
Hey vadonka, seems to me that the 'huge sensor usage in idle after using special apps like camera bug' is back in 2.6.32.58 -> more batterydrain

Since CM7 for O2X got released, you can see nonstop sensor usage in 'spare parts' from some apps, especially from camera app, even if the app is closed. Then you will notice, that there will be 3-4% batterydrain in one hour instead 0-1% as usual when screen off.

Seems that V20Q sensor package implementation in CM7 stock kernel eliminates this bug, but now on your newest release... it is back!
[LG Optimus 2x] march173:
just wondering..is this kernel suitable for cm9?
[LG Optimus 2x] ron_gangte:
Nope. It is not.
[LG Optimus 2x] march173:
owh..thanks..
[LG Optimus 2x] 4lph4:
I use Mortplayer too, but I don't have your issue with mp3. Do you have problem only with audio books?

I'm using the same KANG, with kernel 1203112110-ETaNa_LOC_OTF with 48MB RH.
[LG Optimus 2x] umirza85:
Quick question, is the low overclock version that is the kernel closest to stock?
[LG Optimus 2x] @dap:
The LOC version overclocks to 1216MHz; stock kernel is 1000MHz.
[LG Optimus 2x] hadi_rena:
Hmm the closest to stock one is 1015 MHz and available to HOC and LOC just set max freq using setCPU... If you want the closest to stock one I recommend to use LOC one because in that version we have more low frequencies to use.
[LG Optimus 2x] Shadow350z:
Hi, i use this just one days the first 20 hours all work fine but now in 3 hours i find my phone off. I power on and he show me 80% battery. And after that 3 reboot and now off again.. I find this kernel very well but not stable for me..
[LG Optimus 2x] FlynDual:
Probabily you are using the kernel version with ds! This means that the battery drivers are...experimental. You should try this version ^_* http://etana.donka.hu/kernel/1203112110-ETaNa_LOC_OTF.zip
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
I gave up on ds driver, when i got to about 15-10% it would randomly turn off!
[LG Optimus 2x] Shadow350z:
Thanks for you're anwser but i use the OTF because i read the description and i didn't wan the DS version.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
i tested an alternative "lite" battery driver currently. its originally made for the su660 kernel, but its working with our devices too. doesn't have the funky reading problem but provide a better battery life like the stock driver.

i think i will replace the ds driver with this in the next version.

stay tune :)
[LG Optimus 2x] _Vegas:
wow,that's cool:thumbup:
[LG Optimus 2x] der.einstein:
No please keep DS battery driver!

I know the readings are not acurate but the battery lasts AGES
[LG Optimus 2x] mind_challenge:
At least in one build?
[LG Optimus 2x] @dap:
or as an OTF option? The readings are funky but it does give great life...
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
If he has found a driver which gives the same battery life without the funky readings why would you want to keep the DS driver? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
Sound cool, can't wait to try it! :D
[LG Optimus 2x] razerblade17:
can i use this kernel with wiui rom?
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Of course, I've been using it all this time with MIUI based ROMs and it works alright :)
[LG Optimus 2x] @dap:
If the life is the same you're right: I wouldn't. :-)

I do enjoy my battery meter going up sometimes, though... ;-)
[LG Optimus 2x] parthabhatta:
Best kernel I have used with cm7 temasek kang in terms of battery life. Normal usage and still battery is running at 15% after 39 hours. Using LOC OTF DS version as it is. No tweaks, no OC done. Thanks to Vadonka and Spica.
[LG Optimus 2x] mimm.m:
hello

i think it is a noob question but here we go:

what do i have to do if i want to install the kernel, because i have tried it with my CM7 stable and i got a bootloop ( i tried it with the low overclock and the DS battery driver ...... also without the DS driver) and i have put the etan.config file to the root of my sd .......
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
don't use cm7 stable, it's already old, use the nigthly builds or kang version. it's rather new.

and you should see the manual on first page. it's already in there please read..
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
good news, finally i can eliminate every major bug in the kernel with help of Spica.

tomorrow i will release a new version. the lite battery driver working good, but im build the ds driver too for now, so you guys can choose whatever want, the stock, the ds, or the lite.

the battery driver select with otf is not working for now, having too many issues.

personally im prefer the lite driver. provide very good battery life and not have any strange reading issues.

Spica also testing this battery driver, here is his experience:

"...I am using stock gb with your light battery charger driver. And after xoing one recharge cycle battery life is very good more good then DS and original battery driver."
[LG Optimus 2x] uizz:
I updated the kernel this evening after a month circa.

After locking the phone the screen goes on and off for a while.

Is it a known issue?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
yes sometimes it happened, it will be fixed in the next version.
[LG Optimus 2x] Lapiduss:
@vadonka

Occasionally I have an annoying problem with the sensor, even if I disable the automatic orientation in remains active (also in lock screen). After the reboot everything works fine.

(I don't know if is kernel related..)

Thankssss
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
the screen auto rotate is a rom feature, the gyro sensor is working all the time, the rom decide that ignore the sensor readings or not. the kernel only provide the sensor data to the rom, so your problem connected to the rom.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
Kernel is updated, files found on the primary location, details in the OP post.
[LG Optimus 2x] razerblade17:
which version u thinks work better for miui 2.3.16?? just want to know your opinion
[LG Optimus 2x] ron_gangte:
Nope. You will lose no data.

But it is always safe to have a NANDROID backup, just in case.
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Unless something goes wrong, you don't. I personally just flash them over each other. (After doing a nandroid of course.)
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
update:

i was build two new version for who feels the phone laggy with the powersave version.

the new version is pretty much like the powersave version but with a light coreboost. its probably dont hurt the battery life but the phone is feels faster.

update in the OP, powersave-coreboost and powersave-shared-coreboost.

try it :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rankec:
yes it is related to the kernel. like you said i tried standard verion. can apply themes on miui.

will try your version now for some days. but i can't expect long battery life, could i?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
probably the ramhack causing your issue. try any version what is not the shared version.

the powersaver non shared version should be working and provide a better battery life
[LG Optimus 2x] Rankec:
yeah. tried powersaved version with core boost. also working :)

thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
You're welcome :)
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
i think i found the problem about the DS battery driver:

NVBATTERY_POLLING_INTERVAL is 60 sec on the DS driver but in the orig battery charger driver this value is 390 sec

SLEEP_BAT_CHECK_PERIOD is 240 sec on the DS driver but in the orig this value is 2090 sec

the sleep chek period is fine, but barely. however the polling interval is only 60 sec, this is too short, i think this will causing the strange battery readings, so i was increased this two value, especially the polling interval.

im using this version now, and seems to be the funky battery readings is gone.
[LG Optimus 2x] VSwensson:
You've figured that out already, awesome!

Will you be including this edit/fix in the next update?

Also, does your kernel work with custom versions of MIUI, like WajkUI?

Thanks for this, very easy to understand what's new with every version thanks to your first POST :D
[LG Optimus 2x] econ:
Had some FC's, laggy GTA and Asphalt 6HD wasn't playable, 2 SOD's after using half a day your UV normal version and latest CM Kang. Installation was correctly and now on clean, latest MIUI dont have any of these issues.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
if you are using your phone like this, better that install the standard non undervolted version. the power save version is not for hd gaming :)
[LG Optimus 2x] econ:
I tested your UV and normal kernel, normal was a little bit much responsive, but it also lags sometims, especially in these two games and FC's happens too.
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
I play a bunch of HD games as well. But I want to save battery too. I'll try the coreboost version now. :p

---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 AM ----------

I just tried coreboost shared memory, and Asphalt 6's accelerometer steer is not working. Can anyone double check? Will try the non-shared coreboost now...

---------- Post added at 08:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 AM ----------

Powersave coreboost works flawlessly. :)

I'll probably stay with this line then.
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
here is my cpu when use with non uv version and shared 32mb and benchmark with antutu.
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Power save core boost version is spot on, great battery life and decent performance! :)

The normal power save was a little bit too laggy at multitasking :p
[LG Optimus 2x] _Vegas:
It's still lag in settings menu with the new version (normal shared version and powersave coreboost version )

:confused:

I'm using ICS theme
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
try non powersave if you don't mind with battery
[LG Optimus 2x] _Vegas:
yeah,i'm using normal shared version without powersave.

but it still get lag with fast scrolling,strange.

After some time , it goes smooth.

Don't know why...

But with the default system theme ,it's smooth.

When using Vork and Swift, it's always smooth.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1329375

Using this theme
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
try the non shared version, because vork and swift kernel dont have this feature.

i notice that the shared memory version causing issues for some people.

i will build the traditional ramhack version too in the next release, it has the reboot issue (for now), but maybe fix this strange bugs.
[LG Optimus 2x] _Vegas:
Hmm,i had tested the no ramhack version (IronKernel) ,it's lag ,too.

i will try your normal version:D
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
the difference between the versions is the overclock level or/and the battery driver.

its not affected the stability, every version working well. the main difference between the versions is the battery life.

i prefer personally the low overclocked version with the lite battery driver. this provide the best battery life so far, with a smooth operation.
[LG Optimus 2x] razerblade17:
thanks~ now downloading...heeeeheee
[LG Optimus 2x] @dap:
Fantastic work, Vadonka! Thanks :D

Downloaded, flashed, and running now...
[LG Optimus 2x] Ximo F. Verde:
Thanx a lot Vadonka! Do i need to wipe something b4 flash?

EDIT: Got it.. read 1st post
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
Great work! Yes, battery seems very good:D
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Nice new lite version. If this proves to be on par with the DS, and at least better than the normal version, wouldn't it be best to just remove the normal one, and consider this lite version as an upgrade? ;)

Btw do these new version keep the previous ramhack? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
no, i forgot to modify that :o

you need to set the ramhack with the 'rh' script again.

sry :)
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
I still did that for curiosity's sake, but I guess it's no big deal :)
[LG Optimus 2x] 4lph4:
Do you think it would be a problem to include this setting in the etana.conf?

In this way the updated kernel could be flashed with the user defined RH.

Yeah I know.. I'm really lazy :D:D
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
its not a problem, just i spend so much time to fix every bug... so i forgot this :)

next time it will be included. i promise :)
[LG Optimus 2x] yarisd4dturbo:
Great job, i use Hoc with lite battery mod and my X2 fly :)...you are the best ;)

Inviato dal mio Optimus 2X usando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
will try your lite battery driver, since it's promising.

maybe some suggestion vadonka, can u add the status of ram hack we used in your rh script?? so we can know what's ram hack we used.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I wonder if vadonka sleeps......

He is almost 24/7.

*salutes*
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
well, you know.. coffee, energy drink, a lot of sex..

just the usual stuff's :)
[LG Optimus 2x] xdaslade:
Thanks for the update and awesome kernel. I installed new LOC-LITE and tweaked for OC to 1.2ghz, LMK set to aggr, and the rest on default. It has been very stable.

One thing I did notice was the excessive flickering when in "auto" brightness mode. I assume that has something to do with the new battery driver trying to conserve battery through display dimming. Anyway, no big deal but I was forced to set the display to a single brightness setting.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kostja_V:
vadonka,

May be you could release your kernel without OC support? It's not necessity, but I never use OC, because O2x is fast enough, contrariwise sometimes I would like to play some timekillers such PvZ or Peggle (+quite long list of non working games). As I undersood nonOC version will fix this problem?
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
All games i've tried are working for me, actually sometimes oc makes them smoother, espetially emulators!
[LG Optimus 2x] Kostja_V:
I haven't tried latest version yet, but on all previous versions of ETaNa kernel Plants vs Zombies, Peggle, Sonic 4 Ep1 freeze while loading. But they work fine on CM stock kernel.
[LG Optimus 2x] mrmaffen:
right now im using your 11th march kernel and its working allmost perfectly. however i had some charging bsods (my phone is becoming really hot at the area around the sd-card slot). im using your setcpu profile suggestions. any other idea how to fix this?

ill try your newest kernel now and see if that helps with my issue.

additionally i noticed that poweramp is somehow draining my battery when im not using it at all. whenever i listened to some music and unplugged the ear-pieces, im noticing that my phone is draining ~ 10-20%/h. when im killing the poweramp service the phone's drain goes back to normal. i already tried using the stock music app, but i have just the same issue with the stock music app-service as well.

anybody on here who had the same problem or can suggest a fix?

thanks :)
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
Don't know about pvz and peggle, but i've tried other ea games like nfs and dead space and they are perfect. Also svz and shadowgun. I'm using latest cm7 kang and latest kernell (but they also worked on previous versions!)
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
I'm using google music :thumbup: and when i'm charging i usually use the freq 324-503 mhz cause using the freq 324-1100 mhz, it gave me hot temp on cpu :banghead:
[LG Optimus 2x] Kostja_V:
There is no need to name working games. I know that most of them working flawlessly on ETaNa. The problems were with games I named (+ few more).
[LG Optimus 2x] rototrol:
Wifi location and maps

Great Kernel, I must say!

Only a small note, though: has anyone else noticed some sort of instable localization when using maps with wifi and GSM as sources, w/o GPS? I just tested maps with the stock kernel: once the app locks user position using wifi networks it stays right there with only minor variations, while using this kernel the variations are much more frequent and large. Often maps will even loose wifi localization but it recovers in a few seconds.

Is it a common issue? Solutions?
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
Here is something strange... I'm charging and its stuck at 42%, but battery calibration app is telling me i have 4191mv.
[LG Optimus 2x] packyman:
I do it, and nothing config file found by installer.... mh

It lay on internal and external sdcard.
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
It needs to be on root of external sd, "emmc" usually if using cm7
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
Suddently became 100% with 4196mv after hours of being stuck at 42%!
[LG Optimus 2x] snel76:
can you tell us wich batter driver version you use?
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
Oh yes, sorry, the new lite one!
[LG Optimus 2x] snel76:
i use lite version too but did not notice that, i will have an eye on this and post here if it happens to me too.
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
It's probably just something stupid, it seems to have fixed itself anyway!
[LG Optimus 2x] FlynDual:
Did you try to do a battery stats reset?
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
Yes, i did that as soon as i got to 100%. Anyway it's fixed now!
[LG Optimus 2x] vkk178:
How significant is the power consumption difference between the HOC & LOC versions of the kernels ??
[LG Optimus 2x] rktdi:
thanks

hi people

first, thank you Vadonka for your great work - I am running Temasek latest Kang, and now your Etana LOC LITE OTF kernel.

everything running fine, my phone is very fast and responsive.

But I am experiencing SOD almost everytime I charge the phone - how can I stop this? - I am running your kernel with everything Default, and no OC.

Also battery life is not great, anyway I can improve this?

Thanx in advance!
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Application -> Development -> Stay Awake

It may help reduce chances of charging sod.
[LG Optimus 2x] hyyuga:
i think i remeber vadonka saying that u should do one full charge and discharge cycle to maximize battery life

edit: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23768616&postcount=2372
[LG Optimus 2x] rktdi:
done, great tip, thx!
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
kernel is updated, just a minor update what can be help to avoid charging bsod (i hope), plus etana.conf supported predefined ramhack size. you need to set this at one time and every future install used this value. if no ramhack specifyed or the value is invalid, then no ramhack used by default. of course the rh script can be use for change ramhack any time.
[LG Optimus 2x] kickokim:
Linux kernell 3.3 is out with some Android merges. Sounds like good news. Although i don't really understand what it all means:D http://kernelnewbies.org/LinuxChanges#head-80c16421309a94b13fa54724ecb56d43ae371bf6
[LG Optimus 2x] stpsp:
pls vadonka can you support ip tables in your kernel , because some app doesn't work like wifikill :D and thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] pidocchio:
Well version 3.4 will include some major energy consumption tweaks... I cannot wait :D.

Vadonka, I want first of all thank you for the wonderful work you are doing with this kernel, then ask you a question.

Is it possible to update the voodoo sound in the kernel? I checked some days ago and it's still v1.0 in ETaNa.

Thank you again. :).
[LG Optimus 2x] Impact7:
vadonka, are you planning to create/help the new 3.0.8 kernel? I´m waiting for your work on CM9 for weeks :D

But only if you got enough free time.

And sry if this question was already posted^^
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
what, there are exsist a new voodoo driver? :) where?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
it will be a hard thing, and a LOT of work, so... im not promise anything for now
[LG Optimus 2x] Impact7:
This has to be more than enough for me^^
[LG Optimus 2x] Shadowchaz:
What sort of battery should I be getting with the lite driver? After 24 hours I can't tell any difference in battery consumption eg half day is about 40 percent used... light usage.
[LG Optimus 2x] @dap:
When I use the value of 48 as indicated in your sample file in the OP the installer tells me "invalid ramhack value." Install is still successful but the ramhack needs to be set with the rh script...
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
ramhack=48

are you use this?

make sure that no space after the ramhack number
[LG Optimus 2x] @dap:
I cut and pasted the text from your sample file but will check for an embedded space...
[LG Optimus 2x] pidocchio:
I saw a v7 version and then I realized that o2x versions have only v1, the v7 is for the galaxy s :p.

Hi Vadonka tried your latest -ETaNa_HOC_LITE_OTF kernel yesterday on Wiui rom.. Extremely fast kernel. Back on stock based rom atm but will keep trying your new work.

This kernel is do much more stable than when I tested one month ago. As stable as stock CM7!

Thanks for the work vadonka.

Reverting back to DS_HOC driver as I dont see any significant power savings from the lite driver . Is there any setting I need to explore ?
[LG Optimus 2x] @dap:
Can't find any space after the ramhack number...:confused:

Should I remake the etana.conf from scratch, rather than using the cut and paste from your sample file?
